On Monday, a bankruptcy judge granted Windstream Holdings a temporary restraining order against Charter Communications’ advertising campaign that targeted its subscribers.
The judge ruled from the bench yesterday with a written order to follow, according to a Windstream spokesman. On April 5, Windstream filed a federal lawsuit against Charter that said Charter was engaging in a “scare-tactic campaign” to entice Windstream subscribers to switch to Charter.
Charter declined to comment on the judge granting the temporary restraining order.
